Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of one or more cannabinoids in the manufacture of medicaments for use in the treatment of diseases and conditions benefiting from neutral antagonism of the CB 1 cannabinoid receptor.
- the cannabinoid is tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV).
- THCV tetrahydrocannabivarin
- the diseases and conditions to be treated are taken from the group: obesity, schizophrenia, epilepsy, cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's, bone disorders, bulimia, obesity associated with type II diabetes (non-insulin dependant diabetes) and in the treatment of drug, alcohol and nicotine abuse or dependency.
- cannabinoids can be attributed to their interaction with cannabinoid receptors.
- cannabinoid receptors are present in mammalian systems.
- CB 1 receptors a class of G-Protein coupled receptors which are present mainly in the central nervous system.
- G-Protein coupled receptor is the CB 2 receptors which are found substantially in the immune system.
- Cannabinoids are generally cannabinoid receptor agonists, which mean that they dock with a cannabinoid receptor and activate it.
- cannabinoid receptor agonists include the classical plant derived cannabinoid delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the non-classical cannabinoid receptor agonist R-(+)-WIN55212 and the eicosanoid or animal derived cannabinoid receptor agonist anandamide. All of these compounds have been shown to bind to the CB 1 receptor.
- Agonism at a receptor will often lead to an active response by the cell. Many disease states result from the overactive or overabundant effects of agonists at their receptors.
- cannabinoid receptor antagonists A competitive antagonist of cannabinoid receptor is one that will bind to the receptor but not cause a response in the cell.
- An inverse agonist acts upon a receptor to produce an opposite effect to the response that the agonist would produce.
- SR141716A (described in EP0576357) has been shown to antagonise the CB 1 cannabinoid receptor. There is evidence however that SR141716A is an inverse agonist rather than a silent or neutral antagonist (Pertwee, R. G., 2003).
- SR141716A by itself produces effects that are opposite in direction from those produced by CB 1 agonists such as THC. Therefore leading to the inference that it is an inverse agonist of the CB 1 receptor. Whilst in some instances this may reflect antagonism of an endogenous CB 1 agonist (a CB 1 agonist produced by the assay system itself) in other instances it is thought to arise because CB 1 receptors are constitutively active.
- constitutively active receptors trigger effects even in the absence of any administered or endogenously produced agonist.
- Agonists enhance this activity whilst inverse agonists oppose it.
- neutral antagonists leave constitutive activity unchanged.
- Neutral antagonists are favoured over inverse agonists as they only block the ability of the receptor to interact with an endogenously produced CB 1 agonist such as anandamide or one that has been administered.
- the compound SR141716A engages with the CB 1 cannabinoid receptors so that they can't be activated. It is possible that blocking the CB 1 receptor system may adversely affect CB 1 mediated aspects such as mood, sleep and pain relief.
- endocannabinoids have neuroprotectant and anti-oxidant properties it is also possible that users of SR141716A may be at an increased risk of cancer and stroke.
- Neutral CB 1 receptor antagonists are likely to have a less complex pharmacology than those of an inverse agonist. Thus, when administered by itself such an antagonist will only have effects in regions of the cannabinoid system in which there is ongoing release of endogenous cannabinoids onto CB 1 receptors but will not affect the activity of the endogenous cannabinoid system that arises from the presence in some parts of this system of constitutively active CB 1 receptors.
- CB 1 receptor antagonists particularly neutral CB 1 receptor antagonists, are as such, likely to be useful in the treatment of diseases and conditions that are caused by an interaction with the CB 1 receptor.
- diseases and conditions include, for example, obesity, schizophrenia, epilepsy or cognitive disorders such as Alzheimers, bone disorders, bulimia, obesity associated with type II diabetes (non-insulin dependant diabetes) and in the treatment of drug, alcohol or nicotine abuse or dependency (Pertwee, R. G., 2000).
- This analogue behaves as a neutral CB 1 receptor antagonist in the mouse vas deferens.
- O-2050 does not behave as a CB 1 receptor antagonist in mice in vivo and, like established CB 1 receptor agonists, it depresses mouse spontaneous activity.
- cannabinoid tetrahydrocannabinovarin is a neutral antagonist of the CB 1 and CB 2 cannabinoid receptors.
- the cannabinoid THCV is a classical plant cannabinoid, which is structurally related to THC, in that instead of the 3-pentyl side chain of THC, the THCV molecule has a 3-propyl side chain.
- the structures of the two cannabinoids are shown in FIG. 1 .
- THCV appears to act as a neutral antagonist of CB 1 receptors was particularly surprising as THC is known to be a CB 1 agonist and it should therefore follow that a structurally related compound such as THCV would also be an agonist rather than an antagonist.
- THCV tetrahydrocannabivarin
- the THCV is used in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of obesity, schizophrenia, epilepsy or cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's, bone disorders, bulimia, obesity associated with type II diabetes (non-insulin dependant diabetes) and in the treatment of drug, alcohol or nicotine abuse or dependency.
- the THCV is used in the manufacture of a medicament for use as an appetite suppressant.
- a neutral antagonist is likely to have fewer side effects than those of an inverse agonist. This is because it is expected to oppose drug-induced activation of CB 1 receptors but not attenuate effects produced by constitutively active CB 1 receptors.
- an inverse agonist will attenuate effects produced not only by drug-induced activation of CB 1 receptors but also by constitutively active CB 1 receptors and so would be expected to give rise to a larger number of side effects than a neutral antagonist.
- THCV may be used in the substantial absence of any substance or compound which acts as an inverse agonist of CB 1 receptors.
- references to THCV particularly with regard to therapeutic use, will be understood to also encompass pharmaceutically acceptable salts of such compounds.
- pharmaceutically acceptable salts refers to salts or esters prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic bases or acids, including inorganic bases or acids and organic bases or acids, as would be well known to persons skilled in the art. Many suitable inorganic and organic bases are known in the art.
- the scope of the invention also extends to derivatives of THCV that retain the desired activity of neutral CB 1 receptor antagonism.
- Derivatives that retain substantially the same activity as the starting material, or more preferably exhibit improved activity may be produced according to standard principles of medicinal chemistry, which are well known in the art. Such derivatives may exhibit a lesser degree of activity than the starting material, so long as they retain sufficient activity to be therapeutically effective.
- Derivatives may exhibit improvements in other properties that are desirable in pharmaceutically active agents such as, for example, improved solubility, reduced toxicity, enhanced uptake.
- the THCV is an extract from at least one cannabis plant.
- the THCV extract from at least one cannabis plant is a botanical drug substance.
- the THCV extract from at least one cannabis plant is produced by extraction with supercritical or subcritical CO 2 .
- the THCV extract from at least one cannabia plant is produced by contacting plant material with a heated gas at a temperature which is greater than 100° C., sufficient to volatilise one or more of the cannabinoids in the plant material to form a vapour, and condensing the vapour to form an extract.
- the THCV extract from at least one cannabis plant comprises all the naturally occurring cannabinoids in the plant.
- the THCV is in a substantially pure or isolated form.
- a “substantially pure” preparation of cannabinoid is defined as a preparation having a chromatographic purity (of the desired cannabinoid) of greater than 90%, more preferably greater than 95%, more preferably greater than 96%, more preferably greater than 97%, more preferably greater than 98%, more preferably greater than 99% and most preferably greater than 99.5%, as determined by area normalisation of an HPLC profile.
- the substantially pure THCV used in the invention is substantially free of any other naturally occurring or synthetic cannabinoids, including cannabinoids which occur naturally in cannabis plants.
- substantially free can be taken to mean that no cannabinoids other than THCV are detectable by HPLC.
- the THCV is in a synthetic form.
- the THCV is formulated as a pharmaceutical composition further comprising one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, excipients or diluents.
- the invention also encompasses pharmaceutical compositions comprising THCV, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or derivatives thereof, formulated into pharmaceutical dosage forms, together with suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, such as diluents, fillers, salts, buffers, stabilizers, solubilizers, etc.
- suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carriers such as diluents, fillers, salts, buffers, stabilizers, solubilizers, etc.
- the dosage form may contain other pharmaceutically acceptable excipients for modifying conditions such as pH, osmolarity, taste, viscosity, sterility, lipophilicity, solubility etc.
- diluents, carriers or excipients will depend on the desired dosage form, which may in turn be dependent on the intended route of administration to a patient.
- Suitable dosage forms include, but are not limited to, solid dosage forms, for example tablets, capsules, powders, dispersible granules, cachets and suppositories, including sustained release and delayed release formulations. Powders and tablets will generally comprise from about 5% to about 70% active ingredient. Suitable solid carriers and excipients are generally known in the art and include, e.g. magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, sugar, lactose, etc. Tablets, powders, cachets and capsules are all suitable dosage forms for oral administration.
- Liquid dosage forms include solutions, suspensions and emulsions.
- Liquid form preparations may be administered by intravenous, intracerebral, intraperitoneal, parenteral or intramuscular injection or infusion.
- Sterile injectable formulations may comprise a sterile solution or suspension of the active agent in a non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or solvent.
- Liquid dosage forms also include solutions or sprays for intranasal, buccal or sublingual administration.
- Aerosol preparations suitable for inhalation may include solutions and solids in powder form, which may be combined with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, such as an inert compressed gas.
- dosage forms for transdermal administration including creams, lotions, aerosols and/or emulsions. These dosage forms may be included in transdermal patches of the matrix or reservoir type, which are generally known in the art.
- compositions may be conveniently prepared in unit dosage form, according to standard procedures of pharmaceutical formulation.
- the quantity of active compound per unit dose may be varied according to the nature of the active compound and the intended dosage regime. Generally this will be within the range of from 0.1 mg to 1000 mg.
- a method for the treatment of a disease or condition benefiting from neutral antagonism of the CB 1 cannabinoid receptor by THCV which comprises administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of THCV.
- the disease or condition to be treated is selected from the group consisting of obesity, schizophrenia, epilepsy or cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's, bone disorders, bulimia, obesity associated with type II diabetes (non-insulin dependant diabetes) or drug, alcohol or nicotine abuse or dependency.
- a method for cosmetically beneficial weight loss comprising suppression of appetite in a subject by administering to the subject an effective amount of THCV.
- the appetite suppressant may be utilised in order to achieve a cosmetically beneficial loss of weight in a human subject, without necessarily producing medical or therapeutic benefit to that subject.
- administration of the appetite suppressant may not be construed as a medical or therapeutic treatment of the subject.
- a neutral cannabinoid receptor antagonist in the manufacture of a medicament for use in the treatment of diseases or conditions benefiting from neutral antagonism of one or more types of cannabinoid receptor.
- the neutral cannabinoid receptor antagonist is used in the manufacture of a medicament for use in the treatment of diseases or conditions benefiting from neutral antagonism of the CB 1 cannabinoid receptor, and wherein the dissociation constant of the cannabinoid receptor antagonist at the CB 1 receptor is approximately 75 nM.
- the neutral cannabinoid receptor antagonist is used in the manufacture of a medicament for use in the treatment of diseases or conditions benefiting from neutral antagonism of the CB 2 cannabinoid receptor, and wherein the dissociation constant of the cannabinoid receptor antagonist at the CB 2 receptor is approximately 62 nM.
- FIG. 1 shows the 2-dimensional structure of the cannabinoid tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).
- Cannabinoid receptor agonists are thought to inhibit the electrically evoked contractions by acting on prejunctional neuronal cannabinoid CB 1 receptors to inhibit release of the contractile neurotransmitters, ATP, (acting on postjunctional P2X purinoceptors), and noradrenaline, (acting on postjunctional ⁇ 1 -adrenoceptors), (Trendelenberg et al., 2000).
- the assays were carried out with [ 3 H]CP55940, 1 mg m ⁇ 1 bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 50 mM Tris buffer, total assay volume 500 ⁇ l, using the filtration procedure described previously by Ross et al. (1999b).
- Binding was initiated by the addition of either the brain membranes (33 ⁇ g protein per tube) or the transfected hCB 2 cells (25 ⁇ g protein per tube).
- reaction tube was washed six times with a 1.2 ml aliquot of wash buffer.
- the filters were oven-dried for 60 min and then placed in 5 ml of scintillation fluid. Radioactivity was quantified by liquid scintillation spectrometry.
- Specific binding was defined as the difference between the binding that occurred in the presence and absence of 1 ⁇ M unlabelled CP55940.
- THCV was stored as a stock solution of 10 mM in DMSO, the vehicle concentration in all assay tubes being 0.1% DMSO.
- the binding parameters for [ 3 H]CP55940 were 2336 fmol mg ⁇ 1 protein (B max ) and 2.31 nM (K d ) in mouse brain membranes (Thomas et al., 2004), and 72570 fmol/mg protein (B max ) and 1.043 nM (K d ) in hCB 2 transfected cells.
- the assays were carried out with GTP ⁇ S binding buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl; 50 mM Tris-Base; 5 mM MgCl 2 ; 1 mM EDTA; 100 mM NaCl; 1 mM DTT; 0.1% BSA) in the presence of [ 35 S]GTP ⁇ S and GDP, in a final volume of 500 ⁇ l. Binding was initiated by the addition of [ 35 S]GTP ⁇ S to the tubes. Nonspecific binding was measured in the presence of 30 ⁇ M GTP ⁇ S.
- GTP ⁇ S binding buffer 50 mM Tris-HCl; 50 mM Tris-Base; 5 mM MgCl 2 ; 1 mM EDTA; 100 mM NaCl; 1 mM DTT; 0.1% BSA
- the drugs were incubated in the assay for 60 min at 30° C.
- the reaction was terminated by a rapid vacuum filtration method using Tris buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl; 50 mM Tris-Base; 0.1% BSA), and the radioactivity was quantified by liquid scintillation spectrometry.
- the concentrations of [ 35 S]GTP ⁇ S and GDP present in the assay varied depending on whether the assay was conducted with mouse brain or transfected cell membranes. When the assay was conducted with mouse brain membranes, 0.1 nM [ 35 S]GTP ⁇ S and 30 ⁇ M GDP were present, whereas the corresponding concentrations present when the assay was conducted with transfected cell membranes were 1 nM and 320 ⁇ M respectively.
- mouse brain membranes were preincubated for 30 minutes at 30° C. with 0.5 U ml ⁇ 1 adenosine deaminase to remove endogenous adenosine.
- Agonists and antagonists were stored as a stock solution of 1 or 10 mM in DMSO, the vehicle concentration in all assay tubes being 0.11% DMSO.
- Vasa deferentia were obtained from albino MF1 mice weighing 31 to 59 g.
- the tissues were mounted vertically in 4 ml organ baths. They were then subjected to electrical stimulation of progressively greater intensity followed by an equilibration procedure in which they were exposed to alternate periods of stimulation (2 min) and rest (10 min) until contractions with consistent amplitudes were obtained (Thomas et al., 2004). These contractions were monophasic and isometric and were evoked by 0.5 s trains of pulses of 110% maximal voltage (train frequency 0.1 Hz; pulse frequency 5 Hz; pulse duration 0.5 ms).
- the tissues were electrically stimulated for 2 min and then subjected to a further addition of twitch inhibitor.
- capsaicin This drug was added at intervals of 3 min and the tissues were not rested from electrical stimulation between these additions.
- Net agonist-stimulated [ 35 S]GTP ⁇ S binding values were calculated by subtracting basal binding values (obtained in the absence of agonist) from agonist-stimulated values (obtained in the presence of agonist) as detailed elsewhere (Ross et al., 1999a).
- Inhibition of the electrically-evoked twitch response of the vas deferens has been expressed in percentage terms and this has been calculated by comparing the amplitude of the twitch response after each addition of a twitch inhibitor with its amplitude immediately before the first addition of the inhibitor. Contractile responses to phenylephrine and ⁇ , ⁇ -methylene-ATP have been expressed as increases in tension (g).
- K B The apparent dissociation constant (K B ) values for antagonism of agonists by THCV in the vas deferens or [ 35 S]GTP ⁇ S binding assay have been calculated by Schild analysis from the concentration ratio, defined as the concentration of an agonist that elicits a response of a particular size in the presence of a competitive reversible antagonist at a concentration, B, divided by the concentration of the same agonist that produces an identical response in the absence of the antagonist.
- THCV displaced [ 3 H]CP55940 from specific binding sites in mouse brain and CHO-hCB 2 cell membranes in a manner that fitted significantly better to a one-site than a two-site competition curve (P ⁇ 0.05; GraphPad Prism 4).
- K i values were 75.4 nM and 62.8 nM respectively.
- the mean apparent K B values for this antagonism are shown in Table 1, as are mean apparent K B values of SR141716A for antagonism of CP55940 in mouse brain membranes and of SR144528 for antagonism of CP55940 in the CHO-hCB 2 cell membranes.
- THCV also produced a significant parallel dextral shift in the log concentration response curve of R-(+)-WIN55212 for enhancement of GTP ⁇ S binding to mouse brain membranes.
- THCV produced a concentration-related inhibition of electrically-evoked contractions of the mouse isolated vas deferens with an EC 50 of 12.7 ⁇ M (6.9 and 23.2 ⁇ M).
- THCV also attenuated contractile responses of the vas deferens to both the P2 receptor agonist, ⁇ , ⁇ -methylene-ATP, and the ⁇ 1 -adrenoceptor agonist, phenylephrine hydrochloride.
- THCV was shown to antagonize anandamide at 10, 100 and 1000 nM, and methanandamide and CP55940 at 100 nM.
- the dextral shifts produced by THCV in the log concentration response curves of these twitch inhibitors did not deviate significantly from parallelism.
- the mean apparent K B value for the antagonism of anandamide by 10 nM THCV with its 95% confidence limits shown in brackets is 1.4 nM (0.36 and 7.50 nM).
- Mean apparent K B values for antagonism of anandamide, methanandamide and CP55940 by 100 nM THCV are listed in Table 2.
- THCV did not reduce the ability of clonidine, capsaicin or ( ⁇ )-7-hydroxy-cannabidiol-dimethylheptyl to inhibit electrically-evoked contractions, indicating it possesses at least some degree of selectivity as an antagonist of twitch inhibitors in the vas deferens.
- THCV did produce a significant dextral shift in the log concentration response curve of THC that did not deviate significantly from parallelism (see Table 2 for its apparent K B value against THC).
- a low dose of THCV with THC could ameliorate the high dose effects of THC such as increased heart rate and psychoactivity.
- the low dose of THCV would act as surmountable competitive antagonist of the CB 1 receptors and therefore block some of the high dose effects of THC. It is well established in the art that a partial agonist's potency and efficacy increase with receptor density and that the potency of a surmountable competitive antagonist is not affected by receptor density.
- the dose of THCV will be one that is not sufficient to prevent the therapeutic effects of THC but would be sufficient to prevent the high dosing side effects of THC.
- THCV behaves as a neutral competitive CB 1 and CB 2 receptor antagonist. In the vas deferens, it antagonized several cannabinoids more potently than THC and was also more potent against CP55940 and R-(+)-WIN55212 in this tissue than in brain membranes.
